When I use the following code in my razor view it renders <label for=""> someText</label>
and not <label for="">1. someText</label>
but I can't figure out why 1.
is removed while rendering.
@Html.Label(String.Format("{0}. someText",1))
Edit:
The following code renders <label for="">1# someText</label>
as expected.
@Html.Label(String.Format("{0}# someText",1))
You are misusing the Html.Label method. It is for:
Returns an HTML label element and the property name of the property
that is represented by the specified expression.
That's why it gets confused if you have a point .
in the first parameter because it expects a property expression there.
However, you can use the second overload:
@Html.Label("", String.Format("{0}. someText",1))
Or just write out the HTML:
<label>@String.Format("{0}. someText", 1)</label>
You can avoid using the "Html Helper's label" and directly use html "label" and place whatever you want to display correctly. It can also save some time ;)
The syntax which you are using is wrong or We can say that this is not a way to use property with RAZOR syntax.
You ca use this that may be help full for you.

@Html.LabelFor(model => model.PropertyName,
String.Format("{0}. " + @Model.PropertyName.ToString() + ",1))

I was using this for a data table that contained a double (Lat/Long) and saw this same problem. Thanks for the tips (I am not allowed to comment).
For me, the problem was solved ..
@foreach (var cell in item.ItemArray)
{
<td>
@Html.Label("",cell.ToString().Trim())
</td>
}
